International Quds Day, which comes on the last Friday of the holy month of Ramadan, is being commemorated today by several Arab and Islamic countries across the world by organizing mass rallies that reaffirm their commitment to the Palestinian cause and Resistance against the Israeli occupation.  

International Quds Day marches began this morning across the Islamic Republic of Iran, drawing large public participation under the slogan "We remain true to our pledge, O' Quds." Participants will march from mosques and main squares in cities and villages nationwide to the sites of Friday prayers.  

In the eastern Iranian city of Mashhad, rallies commenced early in the morning as part of the annual observance.

Meanwhile, crowds in Tehran have begun gathering from various locations onto Revolution Street to commemorate the occasion. According to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent in Tehran, "900 cities in Iran will witness Quds Day ceremonies."

The Leader of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, Sayyed Ali Khamenei, has expressed that the International Al-Quds Day march on Friday “will, God willing, be one of the best, most magnificent, and most honorable marches."

In a televised message on Thursday night, the leader noted that the day was "always a sign of the unity and strength of the Iranian nation," describing how the march indicated the nation was "steadfast and robust in its important, political, and fundamental goals," and its refusal to abandon Palestine.

It is worth noting that people of various faiths and backgrounds participate in commemorating International al-Quds Day in solidarity with the Palestinian cause, reflecting its global significance and appeal as a symbol of Resistance against oppression and injustice.

The world commemorates al-Quds Day

International Quds Day marches were also held in Jammu and Kashmir, India, attended by large crowds waving Palestinian flags and a model of occupied al-Quds while chanting "Freedom for Palestine."

On Thursday night, rallies were held in Bahrain, particularly in the Bilad al-Qadeem area, where participants raised images of Sheikh Isa Qassim, Sheikh Ali Salman, and martyr Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.  

Meanwhile, in Yemen, the al-Aqsa Support Committee designated Sabeen Square in the capital, Sanaa, along with more than 400 central and secondary locations across 14 provinces, as sites for mass rallies this evening for Quds Day.  

Muslims and freedom advocates around the world observe International Quds Day every year on the last Friday of Ramadan, organizing demonstrations in solidarity with the Palestinian people.  

In some countries, various social groups—including academics and artists—work to raise awareness about the need to guarantee and preserve Palestinian rights by holding cultural sessions, hosting art exhibitions, and collecting charitable donations. 

International al-Quds Day is held on the last Friday of Ramadan at the call of Imam Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic Revolution, as a step to protect the Palestinian people and their rights, after enduring long years of displacement and suffering.
